A majority of the British public think Boris Johnson should suspend Parliament in order to push through Brexit, according to the latest figures.

A ComRes poll found 54 per cent of the public agree that the Prime Minister 'needs to deliver Brexit by any means, including suspending Parliament if necessary, in order to prevent MPs from stopping it'.

The poll also uncovered a widespread disillusionment with the political process, with 88% of respondents feeling MPs were 'out of touch' with the public, and 89% saying they 'ignore the wishes of voters and push their own agendas' on Brexit.
